Jill!!! I STES! ,AFN'I WILLIAM A. STEPHENS, OF L AWTON, OKLAHOMA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO JAMES M. POWERS, OF LAWTON, OKLAHOMA.

OIL-BURNER.

Specification of Letters Fatent.

Patented Nov. 15, 1910.

Application filed May 21, 1910. Serial No. 562,620.

To allwhom hmay concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM A. STE- PHENS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lawton, in the county of Comanche and State of Oklahoma, have invented new and useful Improvements in OileBurners, of which the following is a specification.

This invention l'elates to improvements in crude oil burners and more particularly to the type applied to an ordinary cook stove or range.

One object of the invention is the provision of a burner having oppositely positioned air ducts, communicating at one end with the exterior of the burner and at their opposite ends with the combustion space of the burner.

Another object is the provision of a burner provided with oppositely positioned air ducts, a combustion space located between said air ducts, and a deflector overlying the combustion space.

lVith these and other objects in view', which will more fully hereinafter appear, the present invention consists in certain novel details of construction and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims; it being understood that various changes in the form, proportion, size, and minor details of the device may be made, within the scope of the appended claims, without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.

In the accompanying drawings, forming part of the specication z-Figure 1 is a rear elevation of the device. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional View on the line 3*?) of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view on the line 4--4 of Fig. 2.

Similar numerals of reference are employed to designate corresponding parts throughout.

The device includes in its construction a pan the said pan comprising a bottom 5 substantially semi-circular in contour and of a size to be readily inserted through the side door of an ordinary cook stove or range and into the reboX thereof. Rising from the curved side of the bottom 5 is a side wall 6, and rising from the straight side of the bottom 5 are side walls 7 and 7 which are considerably less in height than the side wall (3 and having their outer ends cast integral or otherwise secured to the opposite ends of the side wall 6. Formed in the bottom 5 and adjacent to the medial portion of the curved l side w'all 6 is an oblong opening 8, and rising from the inn-er side of this opening is a wall 9 of less height than the side wall t3, connection between the opposite ends of the wall 9 and side wall 6 being established by means of end walls 10 the upper edges of the said end walls 1C- extending a trifle above the plane of the upper edge of the side wall 9. lith this construction it will be manifest that a duct is provided through which air may pass from below the grate of the stove through 'the opening 8.

The bottom 5 is bulged outwardly between the sidewalls 7 and 7 as shown at 11, and rising from the edge of this bulged portion is a wall 12, the upper edge of which is in a plane slightly below the upper edge of the side wall 6, and the opposite ends of which are cast integral or otherwise secured with the inner ends of the side walls 7 and 7 Formed in the bulged portion of the bottom 5 is a curved opening 13, and rising from the inner side of the curved opening is a wall 14 corresponding in height to the height of the wall 9, connection between the said wall and wall 12 being established by means of end walls 15, the upper edges of which extend a trifle above the plane of the upper edge of the wall 14. With this construction it will be manifest that a second pocket is provided.

By reference now to Figs. 3 and 4 it will be seen that connecting the upper end portions of the walls 9 and 14, is a horizontally disposed plate 18. The opposite sides of this plate are provided with upwardly eX- tending portions 19 and 20, the upper edges of said upwardly extending portions lying in a plane with the upper edges of the end Walls 10 and 15. The plate 18 is provided with a centrally disposed opening 21 through which air may pass upwardly and over the wall 14 and into the space between the walls 14 and 9. The space between the walls 14 and 9 will subsequently be termed the mixing space, and cast integral or otherwise secured to the upper edges of the wall 12 and side wall 6 are the opposite ends of a deflector plate 16 corresponding in width to the Vdistance between the end walls 1() and @raies 15 of the ducts. Formed in the bottom 5 and between the ducts just described is an opening 17, through which passes the end portion of an oil supply pipe 18. It will be manifest when the device is positioned in the fire-box of a stove or the like and oil passed through the pipe 18 and into the pan that suiiicient air will pass through the ducts and into the mixing space to combine with the oil when ignited to support proper combustion. It will be seen that the rising flame will be deflected by the plate 1G and flare outwardly and upwardly, the action of the flame producing a draw through the ducts thus insuring a sufiicient quantity of air to pass into the mixing space. It will be seen that the side walls 7 and 7 rising as they do, a short distance above the bottom 5 will provide guards to prevent unconsumed oil from flowing from the pan.

From the foregoing, it is evident that I have provided a device which is comparatively simple in structure and inexpensive in manufacture, embodying few parts and these so arranged that the danger of derangement will be reduced to a minimum.

I claim 1. An oil burner comprising a pan including a substantially semi-circular-shaped bot-- toni, a side wall rising from the curved side of the bottom, a pair of side walls rising from the straight side of the bottom, the

second-named side walls being of less height than the curved side wall and having their opposite ends secured to the' opposite ends of the said curved sidewall, an oil supply pipe opening through the said bottom, and oppositely positioned air ducts opening at one end through the bottom of the pan and their opposite ends leading to the space surrounding the oil supply pipe.

2. An oil burner comprising a pan including a substantially semi-circular-shaped bottom, a side wall rising from the curved side of the bottom, a pair of side walls rising from the straight side of the bot-tom, the second-named side walls being of less height than the curved side wall and having their opposite ends secured to the opposite ends of the said curved side wall, an oil supply pipe opening through the said bottom, oppositely positioned air ducts opening at one end through the bottom of the pan and their opposite ends leading to the space surrounding the oil supply pipe, and a deflector positioned above the air ducts and over the space surrounding the oil supply pipe.

In testimony whereof I aiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
